Farming Tree Spirit

In the Dream Forest, the degree of black soil pollution is not exactly the same.

Some places are less polluted, and the first level can walk on them for a short time. Some places are seriously polluted, and the fifth level will die instantly.

And such places.

are called Jedi by major races.

It is said that each Jedi was once the residence of the guardians of the Dream Forest, who were responsible for protecting the tranquility of the forest and possessed extremely powerful strength.

So after the destruction of the Dream Forest, the places they guarded became large and small Jedi, the degree of black soil pollution was very serious, and a large number of high-level black beasts were entrenched.

Among them.

The most terrifying.

And the most frightening is the place called the Death Forest.

No one has ever successfully come out after entering, and no one knows what kind of thing or terrifying monster is inside.

Now, hearing that there is a plant that can grow on black soil and attack black beasts, it immediately attracted the attention of many people, and they went to check the situation.

In this regard.

Rhodes, who was in the Moon Goddess Altar, was still unaware.

Because at this moment, he was standing under the ancestral lantern tree, conducting an interesting experiment.

"Come, listen to my command... turn off the lights!"

With Rhodes's order, the lantern trees around the entire altar "popped" and all went out.

Even the lanterns planted in the Druid Forest, dozens of kilometers away, were all extinguished, making the entire forest dark in an instant.

"How did you do it, Lord Rhodes?"

Augula on the side said in surprise.

Just one order can make all the lanterns go out. Even if he is knowledgeable, he has never seen such a novel plant.

Doesn't that mean.

In the future, as long as Lord Rhodes is willing, he can make all the lantern trees dormant and completely cut off the road to the outside.

"Haha, I just discovered it too. Xiaodeng is not honest. He only told me that there is this function now."

Xiaodeng.

It is the name that Rhodes gave to the ancestral lantern tree.

Originally, early this morning, he felt that the light of the lantern was a bit too dazzling, so he used mental connection to let Xiao Deng try to turn it off, and it really turned off.

Not only that.

Even the lantern trees that were planted were controlled by it, and the brightness could be adjusted at will.

This made Rhode very happy.

Turning it on and off at will, isn't it the same as street lights?

And it doesn't consume electricity.

Finally, I don't have to worry about glaring my eyes when I sleep in the future.

Wow~

Suddenly, the branches of the ancestral lantern tree swayed.

A weak mental message was transmitted to Rhode's mind, causing him to pause.

"What's wrong?"

Aug asked in confusion.

"It seems that something is attacking the lantern trees outside."

Rhode looked up in the direction of the Druid Forest. Since the ancestral lantern tree can control other lantern trees, it should be correct.

"Could it be a black beast?"

Alpha appeared next to him like a ghost.

"It should be."

Rhode nodded. After all, there are so many black beasts in the forest, there will always be a few crazy guys who are not afraid of death and go close to the lantern tree.

"Forget it, don't worry about it. It's not the first time."

He was used to it.

As long as it's not a black beast above level 5.

So he didn't pay much attention to it and continued to take care of the plants in the plantation. Augla and Alpha were also busy with their own things.

...

At this time.

Outside the Druid Forest.

The previous five-member team of rookies had already arrived here, and under the protection of the magician girl's barrier, they surrounded a lantern tree growing outside.

"Hurry up, I can't hold on any longer!"

The magician girl's forehead was sweating, and her arm holding the staff was shaking slightly.

"It's almost done, right away!"

"Hold on a little longer!"

The other four team members said without looking back, waving their weapons continuously, cutting a lantern from the lantern tree, and then turning around and running away with it.

The black soil here is really terrifying.

Just staying for a moment, you can feel the power in your body constantly draining away. Once the power is drained, I'm afraid it will directly drain their vitality.

So they didn't dare to stay for long, and retreated quickly under the protection of the barrier, and only slowed down when they reached a place where the pollution was not so serious.

"I heard that there is a place called New Moon City nearby, and there are still many people living there. We can go there to rest for a while."

The dwarf uncle who was running in the front suggested.

Recently, several teams have received tasks here and rushed over from the Giant Tree Alliance.

In addition, there are several less dangerous Jedi nearby, and they can go in to find resources by the way, which makes the New Moon City, which has a sharply reduced population, a transit station and becomes lively again.

They have already thought about it.

While there are not many teams coming here now, they will explore more here first, and maybe they can get some Moon God Stones if they are lucky.

However.

Imagination is beautiful.

Reality is miserable.

Just when they ran out not far, passing a depression with stone pillars, there was a sudden "boom" under their feet, and a huge deep pit collapsed.

With a series of shrill screams, several people fell into the deep pit and fell flat on their faces, with half of their bodies almost buried in the soil.

"Ahem...Pah...Pah..."

"Who is so wicked to dig a pit here!"

The cursing voice echoed in the deep pit.

Several people raised their heads and realized that they were in an underground passage. They were surrounded by deep caves that led to nowhere.

"What kind of place is this? Is it haunted?"

The dark elf ranger shrank behind his teammates and looked around timidly.

The dwarf next to him rolled his eyes: "Aren't you the dark elf who is the darling of the night? Are you afraid of the dark?"

"That's different! I have lived with humans since I was a child, and I have been led astray by them a long time ago!"

The dark elf straightened his flat chest and said matter-of-factly.

Good guy.

Even proud of it.

Is this something to be proud of?

Several other teammates couldn't bear to look away and continued to look at the surrounding environment.

A good while.

The experienced dwarf finally recognized something and said in surprise: "This seems a bit like... a druid's lair!"

"Druid lair?"

Several people were shocked and all looked at him.

"It shouldn't be wrong."

The dwarf quietly clenched the heavy ax in his hand, his face full of vigilance: "It is said that the entire Druid's lair is very huge, comparable to an underground kingdom. It is a place guarded by the legendary demigod. We may inadvertently break into their kingdom. ”

Looking back now, aren't the broken stone pillars erected around the entire depression an altar used to worship the Moon God?

They probably accidentally stepped on the hidden passage under the altar, which caused the collapse.

"Ah? Doesn't that mean there are a lot of treasures hidden inside!?" The dark elf hiding behind stretched out his head, his eyes shining.

no.

Can you take a look at the current situation?

There is also a treasure.

It’s not bad unless it turns into the feces of a black beast!

It's so pitiful. It doesn't matter if the chest size is not good, and the brain has not absorbed nutrients. I really don't know how this guy survived. Has the nutrients been sucked away by the black soil?

Several team members almost cried, and they all mourned for her in their hearts.

At this moment, at the end of the passage in the distance, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up and surrounded them.

Black beast!

The expressions of several people changed drastically.

Finally, they didn't have the heart to complain anymore, and they all clenched their weapons.

They looked at each other, then turned around sharply.

"Run away!"

"roar!!"

The screams, accompanied by the roar of the black beast, echoed in the black soil.

Fortunately, the collapsed stone pillars built a road between the nest and the ground. The five members of the team were able to rush out of the cave without any danger and ran back towards Crescent City.

The embarrassed look made the guards stationed at the city gate in Crescent City look at each other, and those who didn't know thought they had just been arrested to dig up illegal mines.

But soon.

They don't have the heart to think about it.

Because a piece of shocking news suddenly spread in the gathering place.

"What are you talking about!? The entrance to the Druid's lair was found outside the Forest of Death??"

Brent, who was reorganizing the population, frowned and stared at the guard who came to report.

"Yes, it is said that an adventure team discovered it accidentally. It is not yet clear whether there is any danger." The guard said quickly.

"Danger, of course there is danger!"

Brent's expression was extremely serious: "There are countless ferocious beasts living in the entire druid lair. If they all turn into black beasts and run out, it will definitely affect Crescent City!"

"this……"

The guard opened his mouth in shock, finally understanding the seriousness of the matter.

yes.

It was a legendary place comparable to the underground kingdom, and it was also one of the most terrifying places in the Forest of Death.

A bad one.

Maybe it's going to happen to them all.

Especially when the next black moon comes!

"Where are those Giant Tree Alliance teams?"

"I've already left the city. I said I was going to explore some underground kingdom."

"..."

After hearing the answer, Brent fell silent.

He didn't know whether this change was good or bad for Crescent City, but for now, the resources contained in the Druid's lair would definitely attract more adventure teams.

Will they be able to stay out of it then?

"One more thing."

The guard spoke again: "The scouts sent out reported back that this morning, all the lantern trees at the edge of the forest suddenly went out, and then turned on again after a while. I don't know what happened."

"All out?"

Brent frowned.

You must know that he has been sending people to pay attention to the status of those lantern trees recently, and every change may contain information about this plant.

no!

We must go deep into the forest as soon as possible and find the secret of the growth of the lantern tree!

Only this way.

Only then can they survive the next black moon safely!

"Go and summon some clan elders. I have something to tell them."

"yes!"

The situation was serious, and the guards did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly took the order and left.

Brent looked at the direction he left, his face full of sorrow, not knowing whether his choice to stay was right or wrong.

I just hope they can find a way to plant those lantern trees before the next black moon comes.

…

"Ah sneeze!"

"Who is scolding me?"

On the Altar of the Moon God.

Rhodes, who was making the Starlight Moss Potion, rubbed his nose, sat on the ground and stretched out.

After a morning of hard work.

He finally relied on the blessing of the alchemy array and magic water to produce a better quality starlight moss potion, which he could hold in his hands and appreciate like a work of art.

It was a bottle of violet liquid.

Not only is a large amount of starlight moss compressed, but some flame mushroom powder is also added, making it look both coquettish and beautiful.

[Mental Strengthening Potion (Intermediate Level): A spiritual potion that contains part of the power of fire, which can effectively improve mental strength and flame control. The higher the user's level, the weaker the effect. 】

"What, it's just intermediate level?"

Rhodes couldn't help but complain.

This is the culmination of his painstaking efforts. Even if it is not a god-level work, it is at least a high-level one.

According to his estimation.

This intermediate level should be equivalent to the intermediate professional that Ogula mentioned before, which is the third to fourth level.

The effect is barely adequate.

A flash of joy flashed across Rhode's face. A mere intermediate potion was not enough to defeat this divine envoy.

"Lord Rhodes, are you looking for me?"

At this time, Alpha came this way.

"Yes, try this potion to see if it has any effect on you."

Rhodes handed over the psychoactive potion in his hand.
